A person was moving through the tall buildings, jumping from one building to another like that person had some superpower or some special type of energy that made them stronger.

That person was around 5 feet 8 inches tall, but as that person was shrouded entirely in black clothing, it wasn't easy to judge if that person was a man or a woman. 

While that person moved through the roof, another group of people closely followed behind. 

The second group was also wearing black clothing, but there was a Chinese dragon symbol on their clothes. The clothes of the person on the lead were plain, though, without any symbols.

It seemed like the grout of people with the dragon symbol were chasing after the person who was at the front. 

They kept chasing after the person in the lead.

"You can't run! Give us the Heavenly Root! It belongs to us! Return it, and we can let you live! If you don't give it to us, not even your soul will leave intact!" One of the people that were chasing after the person in the lead said in a grim tone.

The Voice sounded like it belonged to a middle-aged man. The voice also had some strange energy that seemed to be vibrating in nature, making it so that it clearly reached the ears of the person in the lead, but that person didn't stop as that person jumped again, landing on another building.

"That Bastard! He stole the Heavenly Root that we purchased from the Underground Auction! Does he really think that he can escape after stealing from our Chu Clan?! I'll definitely kill him for sure!" Another person said in an angry tone as they looked towards the person in the lead.

The person in the lead kept jumping from one building to another before landing on the building that seemed to be the last tall building in the surrounding. The next building was over a hundred meters away, making it seem impossible for the person to escape.

The person finally stopped running at the end of the roof of the last tall building.

That person turned back and looked at the people that were chasing. 

A face was covering the face of that person. Only blue eyes were visible from under that cover. The blue eyes looked towards the twenty people in the dragon symbol black robes landing on the same roof.

"Hahaha, why did you stop, little guy? Run! Jump off the roof! Hahaha, you really thought you could escape from us, didn't you," One of the followers said as they laughed out loud.

" Haha, he really thought he could steal from the Chu Clan! I can bet that if we remove that mask, we'll find the crying face of a man who's too scared even to speak," another person said as they laughed.

"Give us the Heavenly Roots, and we can still give you an easy death!" Another person chimed in.

"Give us the Heavenly Root! You have no way to escape! Just give it to us, you thief!" Another person said as they glared at the girl.

" I'm sure you're an independent thief that has somehow learned a few Cultivation skills! If you give us the Heavenly Root and beg us for forgiveness, we can even think about taking you to the Chu Family. You can be a servant of our family. Think carefully. Our Chu Family is a really big name amongst the Cultivation Families," The man in the lead said to the Blue-eyed person.

"What's there to think about? Should I really be concerned about what dead people say to me?" the blue-eyed masked person replied as a beautiful voice echoed in everyone's ears.

The voice sounded like it belonged to a girl.

"You're a girl?" The man in the lead exclaimed in shock.

"Yeah, I am. So what? Can't girls embarrass old men by stealing things from under their noses," The blue-eyed girl replied.

"Hehehe, that's nice. After taking the Heavenly Roots, us brothers can also have some fun with you to control the Yang Fire burning inside us after running for so long."

"Kekeke, it's really our lucky day. We caught the thief, and we'll get rewards for retrieving our item, but not only that, but we'll also get to have fun with a girl with such a heavenly voice, all night long," 

The men started laughing as they passed the lecherous comments on the girl after hearing her beautiful sounding voice.

"Oh? I would have to disappoint you, but you're not getting the Heavenly Root. You're not even getting the girl," The girl replied in a casual tone.

The men looked at her and started laughing even louder.

"Do you really think you have a way to escape? Or do you think that someone will come to save you? Little girl, we're from the Chu Family! Even the gods shall be afraid of us!" one of the men said as he continued laughing.

"Wah, I thought you guys were idiots, but you're clever indeed. How did you know that someone is coming to save me?" The girl let out in a fake surprise as she slowly took off her mask, revealing a beautiful jade-like face on the other side.

The girl had a face without any blemishes. Her eyes looked as clear as the purest of blue and as deep as the sea. Her lips were thin, forming a slight smirk on her face. She had beautiful brunette hair that was longer than her shoulder but not long though to reach her waist, but the black robe she was wearing hid her hairs from the eyes of the men. The Girl looked like she was only 21-22 years old.

Even though the girl had a beautiful face, the lustful gazes of the men had suddenly stopped as they saw her face, contrary to expectations.

"Y-you are... It can't be..." 

"W-why would you... Your Family..."

All the men were gobsmacked as they saw the girl's face. It seemed like they recognized the girl's face, and they were scared of her. The beautiful looking girl felt like a scary ghost to the men that were proudly chasing this girl like lions a few minutes ago. The Lions had suddenly turned into rabbits that had started shivering as they started stepping back, but they reached the end of the building.

"Where are you trying to go? Don't you want the Heavenly Root?" The girl called out as she saw the men standing at the other end on the roof.

" W-we apologize for disturbing you. We don't really want that Heavenly Root. Think of that as a gift from our Chu Clan to your family. W-we will take our leave now," the black-clothed men said in fear as they turned back to leave, but their face turned even paler as they saw tens of white-robed people standing on the other roof.

Not only that, white-robed people appeared on the roof they were standing on as well, on every corner of that roof, creating a ring around the Black Clothed people.

A handsome man appeared beside the brunette girl and sat on one knee. The man had a sharp chiseled face and beautiful silver hair. He looked like he was in his late twenties.

"Young Miss, If you're done with this timepass activity, shall we go back? Madam had realized that you sneaked out of the clan to have fun. She'll be getting restless," The silver-haired man said to the young brunette.

"Sigh, mother is like a baby. She always starts worrying. Why does she even have to worry? Aren't you here to keep me safe? She never lets me have fun. Fine, let's go back. This game of chase was nice. Btw, here, this Heavenly Root that I won in this game. Wasn't your birthday yesterday? Treat this as an extra birthday present," The girl said as she threw a fruit like an item towards the silver-haired man. This small fruit was called the Heavenly Root. It was a really mysterious fruit that was really helpful and rare.

The Silver-haired man caught the Heavenly Root.

"Thanks," he thanked the girl.

"Y-young miss. C-can we leave? We already gave you that Heavenly Root as present," The Black Clothed man pleaded with the girl as they were scared after being surrounded by the White Robed people.

"Do you really hope to leave alive after you talked vulgarly about her? Kill them and make sure that it's a painful death," the Silver Haired man commanded the white-robed people.

"They can deal with it. Let's move back," he continued as he looked towards the girl. "We also need to prepare that birthday celebration. Many big people are coming."

The girl nodded her head as she got ready to go back home.
